Seaside Memories Shadow Box

“Our memories of the ocean will linger on…” is one of the many themed quotes you will find on the beautiful die cut paper that forms the background of this dimensional project.Designed to hang on the wall, the shadow box holds a selection of seashells and sandollars along with not one, but two, removable mini albums!

﻿﻿

We will dry emboss and ink the cover of this mini album, which holds up to (8) 2.5" square photos (or you can use some of the pages for journaling).

This mini shadow box holds a bingo card from Jenn Bowlin and an assortment of seashells...you can bring your own or sift through my collection.

﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿

This album actually sits in the shadow box and fits just behind the mini-shadowbox shown above.

Page 3 and 4. The striped piece on the right side of page 4, is torn from the top of the paper that becomes the bottom of page 10 (shown below with a gingham piece behind it).

Page 5 and 6. You can cut the photo for your tag with the Accu-cut in the classroom. You can have pictures on both sides if you wish, or use one side of the tag for journaling.

The lower Jenni Bowlin bingo card actually opens to hold journaling.
